Container-MVar: Container-Enclosed Capacitor & Filter Bank
May 19, 2025
Maintaining power quality is critical for renewables and large-scale industrial operations—to protect equipment lifespan, minimize downtime and maximize efficiency. Installing capacitor and filter banks is the clear solution, offering:
- Improved power factor
- Enhanced system capacity
- Voltage stabilization
- Harmonics mitigation
But what happens when the site is in a remote environment? Deploying traditional capacitor enclosures can pose logistical challenges. That’s where Powerside’s Container-MVar comes into play.
A fully engineered, medium-voltage, metal-enclosed capacitor bank housed entirely in a standard 20′ or 40′ ISO container. Designed to deliver reactive power support in the field, it arrives assembled with all switching, protection and controls in place — ready to connect with minimal on-site work.
Features & Benefits:
- Key interlock systems
- Stage-level overcurrent and voltage protection
- Harmonic distortion
- (THDv/THDi) monitoring
- Arc flash detection and thermal alarms
- Blown fuse indicators
- Control power transformer for auxiliary loads
- Modular and easy to move
- Fast setup reduces site labor
- Durable and stackable
- Easy servicing and maintenance
- Reduces install costs and timelines
